[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] The Department of Nursing at Cheongam University (President Seo Hyung-won) held the '66th Nightingale Pledge Ceremony' in Seminar Room 1 of Cheongam Hall.
Marking its 66th year, the Nursing Department's 'Nightingale Pledge Ceremony' is a solemn and reverent oath to become nurses who respect life. This year, it was conducted in a unique hybrid format combining online and offline participation.
Due to concerns over the spread of COVID-19, the ceremony was held with minimal attendance, including 21 second-year nursing students who wished to participate in person, President Seo Hyung-won, 10 nursing professors, the nursing student council, and members of the news broadcasting station, all adhering to quarantine guidelines.
Additionally, with the cooperation of Professor Jeong Jong-pil from the Nursing Department and members of the news broadcasting station, the hybrid ceremony was broadcast live via YouTube and Facebook. Second-year students who could not attend in person participated remotely from home through Google Meet.
The ceremony included congratulatory speeches, the Young Nightingale segment, and celebratory performances, all presented via video. For the 243 second-year nursing students taking the pledge, it was a valuable moment to foster pride and a sense of calling as future nurses.
In his encouragement speech, President Seo Hyung-won expressed gratitude and respect to nurses working tirelessly on the frontlines of quarantine with noble sacrifice and service spirit amid the COVID-19 crisis, and hoped that through the pledge ceremony, students would grow into professional nurses embodying these values and spirit.
The Nursing Department of Cheongam University produced the top national nursing exam scorer in 1980 and again in the 57th National Nursing Examination in 2017.
